ABSTRACT: “Information and Communication Technology in the Special Education Program of Technical and Vocational School in Malaysia”. This study aims to explore the extent of acceptance and use of computers in teaching and learning by students and teachers from Special Education School. Respondents for this study are composed of teachers and students from Vocational Special Education Secondary School in Shah Alam (Selangor), Vocational Special Education Secondary School in Pura Indah Kulai (Johor), and Technical Secondary School in Batu Pahat (Johor). The sample of this study involved 55 teachers, 117 students, and a questionnaire was used to collect data in survey method. Data from the questionnaires were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science 11.3 for Windows (SPSS) to obtain mean score, percentage, and standard deviation. The results show that teachers receive and use the computers in teaching and learning; while the student is otherwise. By ANOVA, there was no significant difference between students in every school in connection with the receipt and use of computers in the learning process. Thus, several proposals have been made to increase the acceptance and use of computers in teaching and learning at Special Education Schools in Malaysia. Among them are the teachers should always be aware of the latest technological developments and participate in courses on the use of computers in order to diversify teaching techniques.
